When experienced US sniper Shane Matthews (John Cena) is sent to investigate an incident at a pipeline construction site in the remote Iraq desert with spotter Allen Isaac (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), the pair arrive to find everyone dead and the surrounding area seemingly deserted. However, lethal Iraqi sniper Juba (Laith Nakli) is lying in wait, and when Matthews breaks cover to take a closer look at the scene he is quickly shot and wounded. As Isaac attempts to help his stricken comrade he is also shot and is forced to take cover behind an unsteady wall. With limited supplies and time rapidly running out, Isaac is forced to think quickly as he tries to find a way to outsmart his deadly enemy and save the dying Matthews. (Optimum Home Entertainment)

Liman’s cheap desert exercises and a huge one man show of a cunning sniper. The Wall isn’t a traditional war movie, it has more realistic approach and doesn’t side the Yankees, which is very refreshing. It’s a little bit boring at places, but its message is worth it. A great ending.

A rather bold attempt at filming a quite confined movie. A group of snipers fighting for survival. A few characters in a very small space, almost nothing is going to happen, you think, but it's not boring at all, and you wonder how it will all turn out. Taylor-Johnson and Cena showed their skills and impressed me. I had a nice time with it.
